Carmen Vandenberg of BONES UK highlights her essential pedals | EarthQuaker Devices

Guitar legend Carmen Vandenberg (BONES UK, Jeff Beck) sits down with EQD at Sunset Sound Studios in LA for a brand new episode of Board to Death!
Carmen runs through her current pedalboard which she is constantly evolving and updating for different purposes. Her array of pedals depends on whether she’s touring with BONES UK, accompanying another touring artist, or in the studio.
She talks about how she favors the EQD Westwood for a “bite-y” overdrive, and loves the Arrows clean boost. “It just makes anything sound better. It boosts it but it gives it more definition, kind of love having it on all the time,” says Carmen. She's also using the Sea Machine chorus and Afterneath otherworldly reverb on her board.

Thanks for the video. Carmen Vandenberg is an amazing guitar player. I really like her pedalboard, it clearly looks like a "working player's pedalboard". She has a great sound both live and in the studio.

Now this is a balanced breakfast (if we can eat pedals; I think we should) and the distortion sounds are in a ballpark that reminds me of the actual music I like, not the youtube gear demos I'm tired of (I'm never bored of EQD, don't worry folks)

Thanks for watching!

If you like the belle epoch for freak out oscillation or slap back, you should try their montavillian. At least the original version- it is oscillation happy but the tone control allows you to filter sweep that oscillation and the slap back sounds are more tweakable due to the tone control.
